R34 Gtt - Rear Cv Joints/shafts 2Wd

[lowbro]

G'Day!

Anyone out there know of any business's in Aus that can offer new/uprated cv joints/axle shafts for the R34 GTT 2WD model? (Hub to diff axle)

There seems to be a lot of items out there for GTR and at really good prices these days from aftermarket sellers, better than buying OEM new from Nissan, but none for GTT models ; (

Nissan want $700-900 a side from JAPAN, surely we have some onshore business's that can do an uprated item at a better price to suit?

Yes,good question, as i believe mine are starting to go on my 33 as well.

Cv's? I got mine replaced, you'll probably struggle to break them but. The shafts, well that's a different story

As far as I can find the best solution is to upgrade to gtr diff + axles

But if someone does find replacement shafts then I would be interested

yep...unlikely to find aftermarket because swapping to a GTR rear end is cheap, easy, and over-engineered from the factory

Hmmm, I figured the option has not been re-manufactured yet, cause japan/usa have not come up trumps so far with my searching/calling.

A lot of good uprated parts in the US, just nothing for GTT.

Could get the CV's re-done I guess, too many $$$ have been spent on the diff and rear suspension setup already to change now (all the work done myself to keep costs down of course, Body Still Huurts!)

I was also of the opinon that the running gear on the GTT is engineered the same as the GTR option and can handle a beating, just slightly different set up with cradle/diff etc?
